LUBRICATOR'.

Application filed OctoberBO, 1926; Serial No. 145,249;

This invention relates to oiling devices, but more particularly to an oiling device which may beconnected to a pressure fluid supply line for the purpose of supplying oil to fluid actuated machines, such asrock drills, pneumatic hoists, and the like.

One object of the invention is to deliver lubricant in suitable quantities to fluid actuate d engines through the medium of the pressure fluid utilized for actuating such engines.

Further objects will be in part obvious and in part pointed out hereinafter.

The invention consists of the features of constructlon and combination of elements substantially as hereinafter described and more particularly pointed out in the appended claims and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l'is a longitudinal sectionalelevation of an oiling device,

Figure 2 is a through Figure 1 on the line 2-2 looking in the direction of the arrows.

Figure 3 is a plan view of the central core of Fig. 2 taken on the line 33 looking in the direction of the arrows,

Figure 4c is an elevation of the central core of Fig. 1, partly in section,

Figure 5 is a plan view of Fig. 4 looking down on the top, 1 Figure 6 is a sectional elevation of Fig. 4 taken on the line 66 looking in the direction of the arrows, and I v Figure 7 is apla'n. view of Fig. 4. loolzin up from the bottom.

Referring to the drawings the invention comprises a casing A having a wall B which divides the casing into an oil reservoir G and a fluid passageway D. The fluid passageway in this instance is threaded at its ends as at E for the reception of the ends of suitable con-Q duits F and Gfwhich may lead from a source sectional elevation taken issupplied with motive fluid'passing through the passageD oil passes through the screen Linto the chamber K. Two pulley sheaves I O and P are mounted on shafts Q and R re spectively and a. continuous bead chain S passesover the sheaves O and P. A propeller T fixed. to the shaft R is caused'to rotate by, the pressure fluid moving at. considerable I velocity through the passageway D. The,

continuous motion of the-chain S through theoil in the chamber K carries oil by ad- 'hGSlOII mto the moving current of pressure fluid where it is blown from the chain and carrled by the pressure fluid to the engine in whlch 1t isrequired.

A preferred construction of the device is shown in the drawings. The oil being supplied to the reservoir by removing the plug U. The member H maybe removed when desn'ed by removing the cap V which is screwed into the chamber A.

I claim: V

1. An oiling device comprising a casing" having a wall dividing said casing into an oil reservoirand a stationary pressure fluid passa eway, a member extending through said wall into the passageway. and into the reservoir, said member having pulley sheaves in the passageway and in the reservoir, said pulley in the passageway having a propeller mountedthercon, the axis of said propeller parallel to the axis of said pressure fluid passageway, and a continuous flexible member passmg over said pulleys into the oil and into the passageway;

2. An oilmg dev ce comprising a casinghavingr a wall dividing said casing into an oil reservoir and a stationary pressure fluid passageway, a member extending through said wall into the passageway and into the reservoir, said member having pulley sheaves in the passageway and in the reservoir, said pulley in the passageway having a propeller mounted thereon, the axis of said propeller parallel to the axis of said pressure fluid passageway and a continuous chain passing over said pulleys into the oil and into the passageway.

3. An oiling device comprising a casing having a wall dividing said casing into an oil reservoir and a stationary pressure fluid passageway, a member extending through said wall into thepassageway and into the reservoir, the end of the said member in the said reservoir being covered by a porous screen,.said.me1nber having pulley sheaves in the passageway and in the reservoir, said pulley in the passageway having a propeller mounted thereon, the axis of said propeller parallel to the axis of said pressure fluid passageway, and a continuous chain passing.

over said pulleys into the oil and into the passageway and adapted to carry oil substantially to the center of said pressure fluid passageway.

4. An oiling device comprising a casing having a wall dividing said casing into an oil reservoir and a stationary pressure fluid passageway, a member extending through said wall into the passageway and into the reservoir, the end of the said member in the said reservoir being covered by a porous screen said member having pulley sheaves in the passageway and in the reservoir, said pulley in the passageway having a propeller mounted thereon, and a continuous chain passing over said pulleys into the oil and into the passageway and adapted to carry oil substantially to the center of the pressure fluid passageway without bringing said oil into contact with the side walls of said pressure fluid passageway.

In testimony whereof I have signed this specification.
